DISNEY FOOD NEWS AND UPDATES

In order to make sure you hear everything we hear, I created this Disney Food News Pinboard to capture the bits and pieces of information we receive through the grapevine.

I’m so grateful for all of the tidbits of info that I hear from readers and friends — I rely on you guys to be my eyes and ears for the DFB since I’m in Texas. If you hear a piece of Disney Food News, please pass it along to us via twitter, facebook, or email so that we can post it either on the Blog or on the Pinboard!

Feel free to send photos if you get a glance of a new menu, a new food item, another new addition to a Disney park or resort. And don’t forget to let me know how to credit you (name, web link, etc.).

While the Gulf Delta Chilled Shellfish has been removed from the lineup, the Ol’ Man Island Oysters have been added, now combined with the new Colonel’s Peace Pieces, featuring a blend of lightly fried oysters, crawfish, shrimp, okra, and drizzled with the house-made remoulade.

Joining the appetizer selection will be the Pirogue Platter, including the Chef’s selection of meats and artisanal cheeses.

The Ponchartrain Pasta will now include orecchiette pasta, Andouille sausage, and fresh shrimp, complimented with fresh corn, and tossed in a light cream sauce. The Voodoo Chicken will now be accompanied by fluffy waffles and garnished with maple bacon gravy.

New Menu at Maya Grill: Maya Grill at Disney World’s Coronado Springs Resort has released a new menu. Check it out here.

Sanaa Menu Update: Looks like the Beef Short Rib is no longer available, but the Spicy Durban Shrimp has returned. Thanks to Daniel Staten for this update!

Cookes of Dublin Menu Update: The Doh Bar no longer appears on the menu (what??!!) at Cookes of Dublin in Downtown Disney Orlando. But we’ve talked to the chef, and it will be back eventually! Thanks to Reader Emily for this information.

Kona Cafe Updates: Reader Emily also reports that her family was able to order the ‘Ohana bread pudding to be brought to their table! “The portion was plentiful, the single serving about the same size as the portion for 2 people served at ‘Ohana. Came with the same lovely sauce and ice cream!”

Also, the “New York Strip is now served with a maple bacon butter instead of teriyaki pineapple. It is served with choice of potato and seasonal veggies (mine was delicious broccoli). Half of an entire bunch of garlic cloves come roasted as well, ready for delicious spreading. It was incredible!”

Thanks for the updates!!

Pacific Wharf Cafe Menu Update: At Disney California Adventure, Pacific Wharf Cafe’s menu has been updated and now appears much smaller. For example, the Chili and Shrimp Louie Salad have been removed.

Thanks to Reader Janet for the heads up.

DISNEY CRUISE LINE

This experience, which was once exclusive to the Disney Fantasy, is an add-on experience where children enjoy a Tea Party hosted by Lady Chamomile and Chef Brule who are joined by Disney Princesses. The price of $210 for children (and $69 for adults) also includes a selection of herbal teas and two courses (one sweet, one savory), and an assortment of gifts for girls (a jewelry box, a link bracelet, a charm necklace, a Cinderella doll, an autograph book and pen and a tiara) and boys (a Royal Court cinch bag, a sword and shield, pins, an autograph book and a Duffy the Disney Bear plush).
